About unicode, Python 3.2 has a better support of undecodable strings,
especially filenames (PEP 383):
- bytes version of os.environ: os.environb and os.getenvb()
- better support of undecodable data, eg. in tarfile, pickle, bz2 and
subprocess
- os.exec*() and subprocess.Popen() accept bytes arguments
- mbcs encoding (default Windows encoding) is not more strict, eg. don't
encode Ł as L in codepage 1252
I have a list of the related issues, do you need it?
